Ultra Slime Chunk Finder

https://github.com/alchemyyy/UltraSlimeChunkFinder

I've had an obsession with searching for large contiguous slime chunk blobs in Minecraft since forever. This is something I seem to sit down with for a few days every couple of years. The problem is that the slime chunk generation formula is non-linear, so querying for a solution that involves multiple slime chunks isn't directly possible.

My latest attempt ramped it up quite a bit, and I seem to have stumbled upon the same solution someone else did a couple years ago, with a couple extra optimizations. I'm CUDA accelerating a version of Hensel Lifting (https://brilliant.org/wiki/hensels-lemma/), which seems to be a common enough seed cracking tactic.

A detailed overview of the algorithm is in the README in the github repo.

This project has a thread on the Minecraft@Home Discord server under "misc-projects -> Slimechunks" (https://discord.gg/Nn9aSwAm2b). The original attempt at slime chunk hunting is recorded in the "Monkeys" Discord server, which was impossible for me to find on the open internet, so here's an invite link to that too: https://discord.gg/Nn9aSwAm2b
